Your phone wants your attention. Take it back. Set limits on the apps that pull you in. When you hit one, walk away in one tap, or wait to unlock 15 more minutes. Your phone wants your attention. Take it back. ScreenWorth puts a real pause between you and the scroll. You choose the apps and the limits. When you hit one, you get a choice: walk away in one tap, or wait a moment and unlock 15 more minutes if it's really worth it. Most of the time, it isn't. That's the point. HOW IT WORKS • Pick what you want to change: endless scrolling, mindless phone checks, focus or sleep. • Choose the apps you want limits on. Calls, alarms and the apps you rely on stay available. • Set a daily allowance and quiet hours, like 60 minutes a day and nothing after 9 PM. • Hit your limit and the app is shielded. Walk away, or start an Unlock. • An Unlock is free, but it asks you to wait first, then confirm. Each Unlock in a day waits longer than the last. Waits reset at midnight. YOU CHOOSE THE FRICTION • Light: 15 seconds, then 30 seconds, then 1 minute • Standard: 30 seconds up to 10 minutes by the 5th Unlock • Strong: 1 minute, then 5 minutes, then 15 minutes WALK-AWAYS COME FIRST Your home screen leads with the number that matters: how many times you walked away this week. After an Unlock, a quick "Worth it?" lets you note whether those 15 minutes were. Your weekly card adds it up, and it's made to share. STARTER PLANS • Reset: 60 minutes a day on social and video apps • Doomscroll: 90 minutes a day in shorter windows • Focus: distraction apps off during work hours • Sleep: distraction apps off 9 PM to 7 AM • Custom: build your own HONEST BY DESIGN You're an adult, and you can always turn off Screen Time in iOS Settings. If protection stops working, ScreenWorth tells you plainly and helps you turn it back on. It never pretends you're protected when you're not. PRIVACY ScreenWorth uses Apple's Screen Time on your iPhone. Which apps you pick and how long you use them stay on your device. No ads, and no ad or analytics companies inside the app. CHALLENGES Start a 7-day challenge and invite friends. Scores are about streaks and times you walked away, never money. SCREENWORTH PLUS Plus adds several plans at once, every past weekly receipt and all your "Not really" patterns. Plus never shortens Unlock waits, because the pause is the point. • ScreenWorth Plus Monthly: $4.99 per month • ScreenWorth Plus Yearly: $39.99 per year Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase.
